BenQ GW2490T 24" Black 2024

★★★★★ 4.6 (20,086)

The 100Hz refresh rate on its 24-inch IPS panel delivers visibly smoother scrolling than standard 60Hz office displays, while the 99% sRGB coverage ensures accurate color for basic design tasks. Its fully adjustable stand with height, swivel, and pivot functionality, combined with BenQ's proprietary eye-care and adaptive brightness tech, sets it apart in ergonomics at this price point. This monitor is best for office workers and students who spend long hours reading documents and spreadsheets and need a flicker-free, low-blue-light display with flexible positioning.
